Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perfectly apply a hermetical sealing by eliminating an unevenness in heating even when a paper container has a sealing section wherein the quantity of aluminum foil layers is different by using a seal jaw for which ferrite is partially embedded in a high frequency coil section. SOLUTION: For a seal jaw 20 which seals with high frequency a cylindrical sleeve wherein a paper board is made the base material, and which comprises a laminated sheet wherein the innermost layer is a polyester based resin, the intermediate layer is an aluminum foil, and the outermost layer is a polyolefin based resin, and at the bonded section on which a skive process is applied, pressurizing block plates 21 and 22 at the high frequency coil sections 23 and 24 of which, ferrites 25 and 26 are partially embedded, are used. When a hermetical sealing region is inserted between the pressurizing block plates 21 and 22, the cylindrical sleeve is set in such a manner that the sections where the ferrites 25 and 26 are embedded may come into contact with a hut-sealing upper sheet 15a of a superposing region. By this constitution, the section constituted with 5 layers at the top sealed section is heated as well to a proper degree, and the overall sealed section is uniformly heated.

2. Description of the Related Art Paper containers comprising a laminated sheet of paper as a base material and an inner layer and an outer layer of a polyolefin resin having excellent heat sealing properties are widely used as containers for filling juice, milk, sake and the like. In particular, for contents such as sake, which have high permeability and a long circulation period, if the paper end surface is exposed on the inner surface of the container, the contents will penetrate into the paper base layer from there, causing a decrease in container strength. One of the laminated sheet body joining portions is removed from the paper layer by half the thickness of the laminated sheet from the front end by a predetermined length, and the remaining half of the thickness is folded from the inside to the removed portion from the inside to the outside,
Generally, the paper edge is protected. This processing is called skive processing.

[0003] The body of the laminated sheet subjected to skiving is joined by performing a frame treatment using a gas burner or the like from the folded inner layer surface portion to the outer layer surface portion, and further corresponding to the inner layer surface at the other end. In general, a similar flame treatment was performed to oxidize the surface of each polyolefin resin to introduce a polar group, and then press-bond both.

[0004] In addition, the laminated sheet formed into a sleeve by joining the body is preheated with hot air or the like at one end of the sleeve, and then immediately folded and pressed into a predetermined shape to form a container bottom. . Then, after filling the formed laminated sheet with the contents, the other end of the sleeve is similarly pressed and sealed while being heated to a predetermined shape to form a paper container filled with the contents. It was a target.

[0005] However, polyolefin resins used for the inner and outer layers of general paper containers are excellent in processability,
It has the drawback of having an oxidizing odor of the resin due to the influence of heat during film formation, and of easily adsorbing content components and flavors.It is particularly unsuitable for whiskey and mineral water, which are contents that value the taste. there were.

On the other hand, a polyester resin having a low odor and a low odor, which has a low resin odor, a low flavor adsorption, and a heat sealing property, has been developed. By using this polyester resin for the inner surface of the container, paper containers have come to be used for contents such as whiskey and mineral water that emphasize taste.

[0007] However, the above-mentioned skiving is necessary for highly permeable contents such as whiskey. In joining the body, both the polyester resin surface portion of the inner layer and the polyolefin resin surface portion of the outer layer that are folded back to the outer layer side are simultaneously thermally fused with the inner polyester resin surface of the other end. . In addition, the bonding between the bottom and the top involves heat fusion between the polyester resin surfaces of the inner layer, or between the polyester resin surface of the inner layer and the polyolefin resin surface of the outer layer.

As a sealing method in this case, a method of pre-heating with hot air and then pressure bonding with a pressure plate or a conventional high-frequency sealing method has been studied. The former method uses a polyester resin as a sealant layer. Melting with hot air and solidification or crystallization of the polyester resin by the time of compression bonding in the next step makes perfect sealing difficult.
In the latter method, the aluminum foil layer partially overlaps, so that only that part is not sealed,
It is difficult to seal uniformly because other parts are burnt.

Further, the polyester resin and the polyolefin resin are not fused together simply by heat. However, the surface of the polyolefin resin is subjected to a flame treatment using a gas burner or the like to oxidize the polyolefin resin surface and introduce polar groups. And heat-sealing with a polyester resin (disclosed in JP-A-3-227620). However, when the surface of the polyester resin is oxidized by the flame treatment, the heat fusion property between the polyester resins is hindered. Therefore, a skilled technique and time are required for adjusting the position of the gas burner for performing the flame treatment.

As described above, by using the pressure plate in which the ferrite is embedded in the seal jaw, a perfect hermetic seal can be achieved even in a paper container having a seal portion having a different number of aluminum foil layers. In addition, it has become possible to fill and seal paper containers using a polyester resin as a sealant. Furthermore, in the conventional filling and sealing step, two steps of a heating (hot air) step and a sealing step were required,
According to the present invention, only one heating (high-frequency) sealing step is required, and the filling speed is increased.
